T h e readings are taken by the sub-cashier and verified by the cashier of the department. T h e cash is then counted and taken up by the sub-cashier, and a duplicate cash receipts record is prepared, one copy of which remains in the department, the other being incorporated in the daily cash receipts vouchers prepared in the Bursar's office. Duplicate cash sales tickets, supporting the daily cash report, are made out by the Department, one copy going to the department files, the other to the cash receipts voucher in the Bursar's office. With a few exceptions, noted elsewhere in our report, all departmental cash records are made out on numbered stationery. In the case of departments not receiving a sufficient amount of cash to warrant the use of a cash register, a numbered bound book containing duplicate sales tickets is issued to the department.
